Teens are welcome to sign up for one or all of the evenings - see descriptions below! If cost is a barrier, please reach out to programs@artsunderground.ca. We want this to be barrier free for our teen participants.
Saturday April 5: Copper Pendants or Earrings with Glenn Piwowar
In this workshop teens will make a simple and beautiful copper pendant or pair of earrings with artist Glenn Piwowar. First, we’ll practice designing, cutting/shaping the material, texturing it, annealing (with a propane torch), learning to “pickle" and clean the workpiece. Next, teens will protect the finish by applying spray fixative. Optionally, teens can embellish their piece with hand-made copper rivets, additional copper elements (including fire patina), copper jump rings, and finish it off with a simple necklace cord or earring hooks.
